Governance Assurance System calculates the Risks and Impacts faced by an organization at any given time. There are Assessment and Governance Assurance Pack Templates that are intended to be preinstalled within the system through which the risks and impacts of the organization are calculated. This gives the User direct and immediate access to all of the elements of Risk that he or she is involved with or responsible for. The system contains a dashboard where the user can view the graphical summary of Risk and Impact of the organization.



This involved the development of a MOSS 2007 SharePoint site to manage the "Quantity of Risk Assessments" & the "Quality of Risk Management" in general.



These modules "Quantity of Risk Assessments" e.g. Entities/Customers/Reputational/Audit) and the "Quality of Risk Management" assessments (based upon file reviews) were used for assessment by the end user after the data gets imported.



The system allows the import of the basic system profiles from Excel into the RawQuestions List. These are basic questions and can be answered by the end user to complete the assessment as required. Scoring will be done as per the answers given and different graphs can be generated from the answered data as well. The system  profiles are generated for Entities, Customer etc. Each assessment group may have static details (eg, Customer details such as name, title etc. ) that will need to be established and will have specific business rules applied to them.



Each group will have status management. Status changes are subject to rules specified.



Tasks are generated in a number of ways. During creation of Groups (e.g., take on tasks for Entity, Customer etc), according to what responses are given to assessments (event driven), according to a pre-determined schedule, according to an evaluation of a response by a scheduled Job etc. Once all these assessments are complete we had the option to generate the PDF packs as required.

The requirement was to build a Risk management System from ground 0 on SharePoint Foundation 2010 server. This system would help in managing day to day tasks and activities of the organization in terms of identifying the various risks and then set up the control measures for each.

Each Risk is divided into 4 major sections. Namely Header, Control, Actions and Control reviews. A Header stores the information's about a Risk including the responsible person. A Risk can also be tied up to a parent risk as per the requirement. Control is tied up to the Header and there can be multiple controls under a Risk header.

Actions are the activities that are preformed in order to control the risk. Actions are tied to controls. Similarly control reviews are tied to actions. This allows observations and recommendations to be recorded as required.

Automatic email is being send out to the respective parties upon the creation of the Risk Header and the assignment of control and actions. Work flows are also implemented and that would trigger events and update status and send alert notifications at the different stages of the life cycle of the risks.

The customer had an issue with the existing ways to manage their Documents. The customer had a requirement to have document approval workflow with in place record management system. The flow of the process to be followed is as follows:

1. The specified users can start the requisite Workflow manually.
2. They can specify a list of approvers and notifiers which is user defined.
3. The workflow will create the corresponding task for the specified users
4. All the specified approvers and notifiers will get the notification emails regarding the assigned task and about the workflow info
5. The Status of document is set to pending when the workflow is started
6. During the approval process, any rejection or edit shall reject the workflow for all users.
7. Approval tasks are created in parallel and after approval, the status of the workflow is set to "Approved"
8. After completion of the workflow, the document is flagged as a record in SharePoint 2010.
9. All approvals used to happen in a dedicated Task List.
10. Specified list of users can change the status of the approved workflow to Archived

The client had requirement to develop a web part that displays the current weather condition plus next four days weather based upon 1 or 2 possible sources. 1. Location information from user profile property 2. Cookie – this is set by the user from entering a zip code or city state zip. By default the system always check the profile property first. If the value is invalid or null then it checks for the cookie. If no cookie is present then the user is shown a box to enter a zip code or city, state & country. The time within the web part pulls from the user computer time. We developed a custom web part named as " Weather Web Part" in order to meet the requirement.
